Physicists at the University of Warsaw have generated a miniature “laser tornado” inside nanoscale structures by engineering ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...

Traditional radio-based systems often suffer severe attenuation underground, as soil and rock absorb or scatter electromagnetic waves. By contrast, magnetic induction uses low-frequency magnetic ...

Recently the MagQuest competition on improving the measuring of the Earth’s magnetic field announced that the contestants in the final phase have now moved on to launching their satellites within the ...

Magnetic fields are common throughout the universe but incredibly challenging to study. They don't directly emit or reflect light, and light from all along the electromagnetic spectrum remains the ...
